Redesign your old jewellery

Why redesign your old jewellery? If you take a look in your jewellery box or in those boxes tucked away up in the attic they’re likely to contain many treasured items of jewellery that remind you of precious memories documenting your life, your families and friends. Perhaps they are items that remind you of a special person or moment and for that reason you would never dream of parting with them yet they remain unworn due to damage or not suiting or fitting you. In a process we’ve named “A precious legacy” we offer you the opportunity to review your entire collection. It starts with a free overview of all your items where we discuss with you each item and it’s sentimental value, it’s financial value and whether or not you like to wear it as it is. We then assess the items that you do not wear by testing the metal that they are made from and cataloguing the sizes and shapes of any stones that might be reused (this is done without damage to the items). Once this inventory is complete we can begin to have a discussion about what you would like to achieve from the process. Usually we aim to design some fantastic new pieces of jewellery for you to wear that maintains the sentimental value of the old pieces. You may want to pass some of the materials on to other family members or have pieces specially made for them at the same time. If you have a number of items we present you with a plan, often with several pieces than can be made over time. It is then up to you to choose which pieces you would like to go ahead with first to suit your budget. Sometimes precious metals (but not stones) of no sentimental value can be scrapped with us to provide for some of the labour costs involved in creating your new jewellery. Take a look and imagine what you would like to create and if you’re inspired make an appointment with one of our designers, Rebecca and Suzy for your free consultation today.
